1. WOW ... LOL!! Someone has to wake me up!!
Paris, France   (03.05.08)
Certainly one of the best joke of the year!! How far can they go at the The "Human Rights Council"?? REALLY I dont know!! BUT THOSE PEOPLE MUST BE SOME KIND OF MONKEYS TRAPPED in a tower or a room!!! so funny! :)) they want to be remarked by their jokes...and well they really succeeded this time!! I suppose : WE HAVE TO SAY THEM JUST TO KEEP UP WITH THE "GOOD WORK"!! LOL!
2. Now it's time
moriah ,   sacramento,USA   (03.05.08)
It's time to demand equal respect and a moment of silence for the real martyrs in this war. They must stand up and if they are wearing hats they can take them off for the righteous fallen of the army of the G-d of Israel - this includes those who's lifes were stolen by the inbred, corrupt walking dead, south of Sderot.
3. FEEL NO GUILT ISRAEL - IT IS YOU WHO RESIST
Andrew ,   Miami,FL   (03.05.08)
4. Well done Iran!
IRAN#1   (03.05.08)
Somebody has to stand up to the bullies and for the oppressed... Iran is the bravest to do so!
5. Mottaki please shut up ,
sam ,   tehran,iran   (03.05.08)
Gaze is not part of your country or territory just don't support terrorist, every body knows that around 3 week Palestinian shouting missile to Israel but you and your friends didn't protest against Palestinian militant ,a lot of people in Israel include baby and woman died or injured because of Qasam rockets if you claim that Palestinian has right for livening then why you don't want give right to Israeli people about living they are human same other people What can I tell to animal because Mottaki is animal same Ahmadinejd Instead of supporting terrorist he should pay attention to Iranians but what we can do because an animal can not pay attention to human right ,please find way for him may be a Palestinian passport is better than Iranian passport for him any how I can not find patriot sense in him always he and his friends caring Palestine instead of Iranian
6. Internet connections fine...
Red Temple ,   of the White Mtns.   (03.05.08)
7. This is sickening...
Jacob ,   UK   (03.05.08)
Yet more sickening stuff from the so-called UN 'Humans Rights Council'. Martyrs? these guys were flippin terrorists! Why do Iran always have a say at the UN? What the hell is going on in that chamber?
8. I see "Palestinian" deaths are important to the world
Bill Ross ,   Alabama, USA   (03.05.08)
I also see that Israeli deaths are not important to the world. Israel, I'm sorry to say, you are largely on your own. The UN should change its name to the NNAU - "Nations United Against Israel." http://billrosspolitics.blogspot.com
9. The absurdity of these cut-throats reaching insane levels
Scott   (03.05.08)
Yeah, as if everything is just fine in Iran...super joke of all time. Gay hangings, honor killings , 'modesty police' ...what's next ? thought/mind control, oh... sorry...they're already doing that. Just you wait til they have the bomb.
10. moments of silence
Michelle Wayne ,   Sydney Australia   (03.05.08)
I'm sick and tired of the useless UN who are just a bunch of biurocrats who are geting payd a lots of ouer money for proclaiming rediculus stories.Petrol money gowes are long way in UN , UNZ UE and many others so colled word organization.
11. yes # 4...stand right on the opressed throat
(03.05.08)
12. francodeb@libero.it
Franco ,   Roma   (03.05.08)
The simple fact that fundamentalist Iran is allowed to participate in the U.N. Human Rights Council, is a tragic joke. Are Human Rights not abused by hanging of homosexuals, stoning to death of women suspected of adultery, compulsory scarf on womens hair etc?
13. Makes Hitler...
Dov ,   Manchester, England   (03.05.08)
...seem like a friend of the Jews... By the way, there's this interesting website called Beyond images which gives some facts on the ground and provides responses to the arab propaganda and anti-Israel western media. Worth checking out.
14. WOW, moment of silence, at the request of Iran...
ben shlomo ,   singapore   (03.05.08)
mOment of silence with false pretense,And the UN has been a a instituition of silence with out action after partying with the Arab Money. Nayting could be bought these days- THAt INCLUDES .MOMENT OF SILENCE' TELL THEM TO SEND QASSAMS INTO ISRAEL, AND THAY CAN ASK FOR MORE MOMENT OF SILENCE TO COME FROM TIME TO TIME.
15. Mottaki should read fatah for him self
sam ,   tehran,iran   (03.05.08)
And Iranian should read fatah for their self because with Ahmdinejad and mottaki we will never have human right in iran
16. How about a moment of silence to victims of Islam
Daniel ,   USA   (03.05.08)
17. I dont recall them doing so for bus bomb victims
jack bauer ,   they're hypocrites   (03.05.08)
18. #9 A masterpiece of understatement
R.Alkalai ,   USA   (03.05.08)
The word "Insanity" comes to mind. They are extremely barbaric and the world show se exactly what these people are capable of. The following are some actual videos. A warning- they are graphic, but they are actual footage of what they do. Perhaps if people see the reality, all this insanity will stop: An example of this is an Iranian video of how Islam treats gays: http://www.masada2000.org/impalement.asx This video is an example of how Islam treats rape and adultery: http://www.apostatesofislam.com/media/video/stoning_video_100kbps.wmv Criminals: http:/www.masada2000.org/kill-collaborator.mpeg
19. Silent UN
alex ,   usa   (03.05.08)
I wish IDF should give the UN enough to silence for ever by cleaning the entire Gaza.
20. terrorist sympathizers
sam ,   usa   (03.05.08)
what a shocker, UN supports terrorism. They are by far the most dysfunctional, counterproductive, and benighted organization.
21. Palestine the world is with you
Shulamit   (03.05.08)
The entire civilized progressive world supports Palestine. No one supports the illegal occupation of Palestine. Soon you will win and the international criminal court will try the oppressors.
22. UN to help Hamas
Edelbert ,   usa   (03.05.08)
They will buy them suicide belts.
23. WHAT IS NECESSARY TO BE DONE IN SUCH A TEMPLE OF EVIL
ROLAND SEENER ,   LONDON ENGLAND   (03.05.08)
Again missing points...israel should have asked for more than a minutes silence for victims of the kassams....Israel's job is to bring the world body back to the basic laws of morallity or show it up as a moribund collection of nations of prostitutable disrepute.
24. CAN YOU DISAGREE OPENLY WITH YOUR PRESIDENT OR HAVE YOU SUC
ROLAND SEENER ,   LONDON ENGLAND   (03.05.08)
WHY DOESN'T NUMBER 4 NOT GIVE HIS E-MAIL...AFTER ALL SOMEBODY(HE) SHOULD BE PREPARED TO READ WHAT THE TERRIBLE ZIONISTS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THE BULLIES IN IRAN ,HE SHOULD OPEN UP REGULAR CONVERSATIONS WITH Y-NET,(OR WON'T DEMOCRACY EXTEND TO HEARING FREE SPEACH THAT HIS PRESIDENT WONT LIKE) IS HE THE BRAVEST TO DO SO?
25. #5. Sam.....good to see some common sense
3Jay3 ,   Israel   (03.05.08)
Good to see that not all Iranians believe the propaganda they are fed about Israel. Thank you for your comment. Israel and Iran used to have good relations before the Alytollah took over the country, kicked out all the jews and introduced islamic fundamentalism. Hopefully one day, good relations will return. May the Ayatollah rot in hell!
26. 4 - good joke by you, too!
(03.05.08)
(read ALL the other TBs, what does that tell you, ignoramus!?)
27. AND THE ROCKET'S RED GLARE...
stude ham   (03.05.08)
whaqt useless turds these unhr peasants turn out to be... what quasimodos... to all the victims of the hamas nazi style V2 attacks in Israel I offer my deepest sympathies and most sincere condolences. the nazis have won a major victory over sanity at the UN.
28. Un rights body
Millicent ,   Israel   (03.05.08)
This"rights body needs to be disbanded immediately, it is bias and racists against the Jews,especially since the majority of members according to this article are from Africian and Islamic countries! What about a moment of silence for the vicitms of the rockets in Sderot and Ashkelon, or Dafur,Somalia,Rowanda or do these people not matter because they are not Palestinian? Or could it be because the victims of Dafur.Somalia are being victimized by their Arab Muslim brothern, and they don't care about them?
29. The UNO.
Jean Van Daem ,   Metula   (03.05.08)
Arab murderers should not be put on the same footing as Israeli victims. The UNO and the Security Concil members should know that there are never good excuses for murder : ignoring the murder is the equivalent of complicity. It is the duty of every State, not only Israel, to defend its citizens – Its absolute duty. Condemning Israel doesn’t bring solutions. Only a clear, fair and objective approach of the painful Israelo-Arab problem will have a chance to solve it as explained at : http://israelagainstterror.blogspot.com/2008/01/new-paradigm-for-israeli-palestinian_19.html
30. Manouchehr Mottaki
Mike Reising ,   Berkeley, CA.   (03.05.08)
Adolf Hitler, the psychopathic Corporal from Austria was laughed at behind his back by even his own S.S. and called Teppichesser (Carpet Eater) because he use to throw himself down, frothing at the mouth and chewing up the corners of carpets during his tantrums. People like Manouchehr Mottaki are in a strange, similar and sick way worth the same disgusting, and yes, anti-semetic laugh.
